CLEAR_ERRORS unit-numberLOST_DATA

Clears lost data errors on a unit and all partitions on the unit’s container are affected.

The controller reports a lost data error on the unit when you remove a write-back cache module or when the cache module contains unflushed data, possibly due to an interruption in the primary power source with no backup power present. The CLEAR_ERRORS LOST_DATA command clears the lost data error but does not recover the lost data.

NOTE: Clearing lost data errors or lost data block errors on a RAIDset causes a reconstruction of all parity blocks. Clearing lost data errors or lost data block errors on a mirrorset causes members to normalize.
